There is a chance that is due to canWrite() returning false even if the
directory is writable. There are several bug reports at
http://bugs.sun.com/which complain about this fact (in most systems
there isn't any syscall or
function which will return this value correctly).
Erik could you try this ?
public static void main(String args[]) {
File adminHome = new File(PATH_TO_RES_ADMIN);
File aFile = null;
if (!adminHome.canWrite()) {
System.out.println("Problem found: canWrite returns false");
try {
aFile = File.createTempFile("prefix", "sufix", adminHome);
System.out.println("canWrite does not work as expected in
your environment, it returned false but the file " + aFile.getAbsolutePath()
+ " was created");
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println(PATH_TO_RES_ADMIN + " is actually
non-writable hence the server response. Exception: ");
e.printStackTrace();
}
} else {
try {
aFile = File.createTempFile("prefix", "sufix", adminHome);
System.out.println("This is not a java.io.File bug, we need
to check further.Created file was: " + aFile.getAbsolutePath());
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("canWrite returns true but there was a
problem trying to create the file. Exception: ");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
if (aFile != null) {
aFile.deleteOnExit();
}
}
